They came out in early 3rd. And yes, they look good. I'll try to get a pic of a finished one if I remember.

**SabrX**

What is better: AV13 spam Repressors or AV11 spam Immolators? Repressors have Heavy Flamers, fire points, and can re-roll dangerous terrain tests. Immolators can be outfitted with TL-MM which is good at medium rage, high AV vehicles, and chance to hit flyers.

**pretre**

I think repressors due to fire points.

Since the Purge Squadron idea didn't pan out, perhaps one of these four lists will:

Dominions is a must against jink + shrouding shenanigans, which makes them a liability in Scouring mission.

**pretre**

Yeah, but it has been like that for a while.

**inmygravenimage**

Thanks again for all your help chaps! 3 HB converted to HF - check, done. Before I start chopping up more sisters, is there any reason why you wouldn't give a Dominion superior a combi-melta?

**BlackTalos**

Because she can have 2 plasma pistols? =P

Just like so:

It might not be as good and point effective, but it definitely looks good (and has destroyed quite a few vehicles an others in the past.) Amazingly she has not died to overwatch yet...

Wait, when did that become a thing?

**Shandara**

Wasn't that changed in the e-codex? You can only take 1 weapon from the ranged weapon list for most sergeants.

I converted a canoness with 2 plasma pistols for the WD codex and haven't been able to use her.

**milkboy**

It was debated previously. I think it is doable though. Doesn't the entry say you can take items from the list? So you can replace both boltgun and pistol. Admittedly it is open to two interpretations.

But the point cost is pretty high for dual plasma pistols. So it's not like it's broken.

**Shandara**

The list in my e-book version says:
"May replace one weapon with one of the following:"

**milkboy**

In the unit entry it says it may take items. I think it is vaguely worded. If they had wanted to restrict, it would be better to say only one weapon.

**deviantduck**

Doesn't matter either way, you still only fire 1 gun.

**pretre**

Gunslinger allows you to fire both. And I would never do that. Too expensive.

**inmygravenimage**

Whoops, cat among the pigeons there

So, minus heavies:

Thanks y'all! Edited for wrong pic.

**pretre**

Somebody needs to get painting!

Regarding my melta conversion, here's some quick pics I just snapped of it.

So, you just put the metal melta on the right side and then position the other hand/forearm however you want. This one is setup like she's bringing the melta up and will be using the left hand to rest on top.

**SabrX**

Flamers aren't particularly useful due to the easy access of Heavy Flamers. I've convert my current Flamers to Heavy Flamers using IG bits and a little bit of green stuff:

**pretre**

Nicely done. Easy enough to convert back, just drop the big tank. lol

**MrFlutterPie**

Looking good guys

I love seeing converted/painted sister stuff

**milkboy**

We should do a thread for sisters army on parade. I have t find time to take some pictures!

Start it up!

I still have my thread here:

**SabrX**

Sounds like fun!

Here's a pic of all my Sisters of Battle models:
http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/275672.page#7029465

I have a lot of models to paint.

**pretre**

I popped over there. Nice stuff! I'll have to see if I can lay out all my SOB one of these days, but there is a lot.

**Shandara**

You can see most of my Sister stuff in my gallery:

Currently working on a Sister-themed Land Raider to transport my Inquisitorial allies.

**pretre**

So jealous of that Knight!

**SabrX**

Wow Shandara, that's a lot of bodies on the table!

Now that Lord of War is legal, your super heavies are viable.

I've been thinking of adding one to my army. One of these days...

**Shandara**

The Warhound packs a punch but it's met its doom often enough now at the hands of lowly guardsmen/marines tying it up in melee or (worse) blowing it up in melee!

**Mr Morden**

Knights are pretty good - have a game with mine (Piety) and my Sisters tomorrow night

Hopefully burning many orks

Spoiler:

**Shandara**

Looks good!

My Knight has earned a reptuation for stomping down anything from Dreadknights to Riptides to Draigo with his paladin friends.

Everyone loves him.

**SabrX**

I'd imagine Exorcists and Knight Paladin makes a good combo. Can opener and 2 frying pans to whatever is inside. I'll borrow my friend's and give it a test drive.
